Unit 7. CIRCUIT PROTECTION DEVICES
Text A
FUSES
(Part 1)
If you could be sure every circuit and electrical component in your car would work without problems for the life of the car, you wouldn't need circuit-protection devices. But you can’t be sure, so circuits need some type of device to prevent them from overloading, which can damage both wiring and electrical components. The three basic circuit-protection devices used in cars are the fuse, the circuit breaker and the fusible link.
These are the most common form of circuit protection in automotive electrical systems. You can partially deduce their function from the definition of the world fuse — to melt or become liquid from the application of heat. Excessive amperage in a circuit can cause a conductor to gel hot. Even wire can eventually get hot enough to melt, particularly when a short circuit occurs.
In designing a circuit you must select wire that will safely carry the expected (normal) amperage plus a safety margin. If this margin is exceeded, the wire will overheat and eventually melt or ignite surrounding items i.e. unless you install the correctly rated fuse in the circuit, in series with the load. When amperage is exceeded, the fuse melts before the wire or electrical device is damaged.
Fuses come in various configurations (shapes) and in various ratings. The shape of a fuse has little to do with its effectiveness. Rather, fuse shapes are determined by the manufacturer. The rating of a fuse is the maximum number of amperes it will flow without melting.
The glass-capsule fuse has existed, largely unchanged, for decades. Generally, you’ll find a metal cap on each end of a short glass capsule, or tube. A strip of special metal joins the two caps and is visible through the glass. The metal strip is the actual fuse material — it’s the part that melts when current flow exceeds the fuse rating. The glass protects the sometimes-delicate metal strip from mechanical damage and insulates it from accidental short circuits, while providing ready visual access when you need to inspect for a burned-out (blown) fuse.
Drawbacks of the glass-capsule fuse include:
Fuse length is often related to its amperage rating. This means you may not be able to use a different amperage rating when you add or remove a load from an existing circuit.
A special tool is needed to remove glass fuses from the fuse panel without breaking them.

It's possible for the metal strip to blow inside the metal cap, where its condition is not readily visible.
Fuse ratings are embossed in the metal end cap or etched on the glass capsule. In either case, it’s often difficult to read the marking without removing the fuse.
These disadvantages are partially offset by several advantages:
Because they’ve been in use for a long time, glass-capsule fuses are inexpensive and readily available.
The fuse’s condition is usually — but not always — obvious when visually inspected.
Aftermarket fuse blocks are readily available for custom applications. So are in-line fuse holders.
